“Placed my order to be picked up by 2, I got my text that it was "ready". it wasn't, at least not my drinks. I was handed off my empty cups, to serve myself? one I could do, not the other....my coffee was suppose to have cinnamon syrup and an espresso shot, that's not at the beverage station, so i ask where do i get my extras(which i paid for) all I get is 😳 from young lady, manager or supervisor comes out but just fumbles, and as I walk out fuming mad.... he tells me I would like to see your receipt, did not ask while I had him beside me..... but decides to holler that as I walk out FU.... the only item that was for me I got ripped off paying all that, to just end up with a plain cup of coffee.“

“Was craving pancakes and just so happened to be in the area.

Always a peaceful atmosphere with friendly staff. Ordered the pancake combo with bacon and eggs. No complaints, it was all good. Was hoping to add a little fizz to my order but the soda machine was broken. I opted for a lemonade instead.

The cashier was high energy, full of personality and even cracked a few jokes.“

“Savory sausage, velvety egg, and melty Swiss cheese on a perfectly seasoned everything bagel 🥯! Cafe Consume rocks when it comes to serving up delicious offerings in the heart of McKinley Park. Truly a great spot that has the neighborhood vibing with yummy weekend treats and excellent coffee. If you're looking to try out a new coffee shop than this is the place to be!“

“I’ve been to plenty of local coffee shops around Chicago and Sputnik is the absolute best. I stumbled upon this hidden gem a few years ago on my commute to work when they were on 51st. It’s been my almost daily stop since then. I’ve switched jobs a few months ago and a Sputnik pit stop adds an extra 20 min to my commute but it’s absolutely worth it.

I highly recommend a hot oat milk vanilla latte but anything you order will be amazing. They roast their own coffee, make their own flavored syrups, and they’ve done both right. The fresh pastries and growing food options have made Sputnik the best all around coffee shop. If you’re a coffee lover, DO NOT sleep on Sputnik.“

“I don’t leave reviews ever but this place has the best coffee I’ve had in a loooooong time. Got a lavender latte and it’s the freshest and smoothest coffee. Also owner is really nice and there’s games inside. Please come here it’s super good“

“Chose to come here because it’s a halfway point between my friend’s and I’s homes, and it was such a pleasant experience! The atmosphere was very nice and calm, the smells were divine, and the service was excellent! We got to chat with the owner for a second and she was absolutely darling! I had a strawberry matcha latte with brown sugar boba and I know in a week I’ll be craving it again. 10/10 will be coming back again!“

“there make great refreshers“

“just found the place last week. The nicest dang people work there. young lady made me that pistachio and Chai latte to perfection. the slider and burrito were excellent. Positive vibe and energy as soon as you hit the door. nice set up and the upstairs is really inviting. Very happy to had the privilege of finding a great place like this. I live an hour away but stop when I'm in the area“

“I absolutely love this place. I get the steak sandwich with tomato onions cheese pickles and mayo. I also add lettuce. The orange sauce is so good with it as well. The bread is that perfect texture that is soft inside and kinda crispy on the outside, they toast it a little. All there food is good, I'm just obsessed with the steak sandwich. I order from Uber eats but in person they have more menu options.“

“best coffee and awesome food“

“This is my second time here. Today, I tried the strawberry cheese boba and the mango/strawberry ice cream roll. Unfortunately, the boba drink didn't impress me; it was oddly bland and not sweet at all, even though I requested 100% sweetness. It tasted more like 25%. On the other hand, the strawberry/mango ice cream roll was delicious! I highly recommend their ice cream roll. The consistency is thick, firm, and creamy. I wasn't a fan of the strawberry cheese boba tea. The first time I visited, I had their jumbo fruit tea and their original waffle. The waffle was tasty, chewy on the inside, and had a nice fried texture on the outside, but I didn't enjoy the jumbo fruit tea. It had a strange taste that I can't quite describe, and it just wasn't for me. Overall, I would definitely return for their ice cream roll and waffle!“

“This is a pick-up only bakery located in Pilsen. We got the caramel Tres leches and coconut Tres leches. Both were really good. The sweetness was perfect and not too much. Would highly recommend this bakery for their wide selection of pastries“

“We loved talking with the helpful man behind the counter. He took the time to explain the various chocolates that they sell. The way in which the fabricating of the chocolate is controlled in such a richly authentic way won me over. My granddaughter loved the samples that we were given. I will be back to buy more bars and to try the hot chocolate. I am thinking that these bars would make lovely gifts. You are a great addition to the Pilsen vibe! Judy DeLeon“

“Great atmosphere! Amazing Service! Perfect for gathering here when meetups occur! I always bring a crowd of attendees with me from Galloping Ghost Arcade here for the fur meets I run just blocks down!“

“I’m a sucker for good bread and the Italian sub was delicious. I’ve had two different flavor smoothies and I love them. Can’t wait to try the Reuben sandwich. 😋“

“I had brunch here today with a friend, first time here. I had the corned beef benedict and not only was it the best corned beef I've ever had in my life, but the orange juice was amazing, the service was great, and the value was fabulous also! Will definitely be back and plan to possibly go once a week with friends! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“Be very relaxed, peaceful and a nice menu to choose from👍🏼“

“This place is simply spectacular. I visited from out of state and I loved every second of it. I don't think I stopped smiling the whole entire time I was there! Great food, lovely coffees, incredible service, and an immaculate atmosphere. I wish I could have picked the whole Cafe up and brought them back home with me!!“

“The best coffee made by Vito Brancatto! I now have my sister hooked and will travel from the South Side to join me for the best coffee. Mr. Brancatto will not disappoint.“

“Joy Yee is an absolute gem for Asian cuisine! The menu is extensive, with everything from bubble tea to delicious noodle dishes. I loved the vibrant flavors and generous portions—perfect for sharing. The service was quick, and the food came out fresh and hot. It’s always busy, but worth the wait. Highly recommend if you’re in the mood for authentic, tasty Asian food!“

“First time here and definitely worth trying. The chicken is soft and well seasoned with the jerk flavors. Mac and cheese is cheesy and good. Cabbage is good..now the red beans and rice tasted like rice a roni..it didn’t have that real flavor of red beans and rice plus I think all I got was like three beans. Then it came with some sauce that was sweet, rubbed me the wrong way. But overall I would recommend for anyone to try for themselves.“
